Why we built LegalKit
Because paying $100+/year for a privacy policy generator felt wrong.
The Problem
Every team that launches a product knows the drill: you need a privacy policy, terms of service, and cookie policy. You Google "free privacy policy generator" and find dozens of options - but they all have the same catch.
Either they lock basic features (like PDF export) behind $99/year paywalls, require account creation to see your generated document, or produce generic templates that don't actually cover modern privacy laws like CCPA or state-specific requirements.
We got frustrated and built what we wished existed.
Our Approach
LegalKit is built on three principles:
- 1.Free should mean free. All generators, all export formats, all compliance options. No "upgrade to download" nonsense.
- 2.Privacy by architecture. Core generators run in your browser, so draft policy data stays local unless you choose to share, export, or create an account for monitoring.
- 3.Honest about what we are. We generate templates, not legal advice. We're explicit about this because your legal compliance matters.
What We're Not
Important: LegalKit is not a law firm. We don't provide legal advice or legal services. We don't create attorney-client relationships.
Our templates are based on publicly available legal requirements and best practices. For complex situations, regulated industries (healthcare, finance, education), or high-stakes business decisions, please consult with a qualified attorney.
The Team
LegalKit is an indie project. We're a small team of builders who care about making legal compliance accessible to anyone running a business online.
Product & Engineering: Built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. Open to feedback and contributions.
Business Model
Our model is simple: the core product is free, and we charge for convenience features.
- Free tier (forever): All generators, all exports, no limits
- Pro tier ($5/month or $49/year): Hosted policy pages, consent logs, geo-targeting, version history, no branding
The generators will always be free. We make money from businesses that want the convenience of hosted pages and compliance dashboards.
